<h1>Install SystemDS<a class="headerlink" href="#install-systemds" title="Link to this heading"></a></h1>
<p>SystemDS can be installed via <cite>pip</cite> or installed from source.</p>
<section id="pip">
<h2>Pip<a class="headerlink" href="#pip" title="Link to this heading"></a></h2>
<p>Installation is quite simple with <cite>pip</cite>, just execute the following command:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="n">pip</span> <span class="n">install</span> <span class="n">systemds</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>SystemDS is a java-project, the <cite>pip</cite> package contains all the necessary <cite>jars</cite>,
but you will need java version 11 installed. Do not use an older or newer
version of java, because SystemDS is non compatible with other java versions.</p>
<p>Check the output of <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">java</span> <span class="pre">-version</span></code>. The output should look similar to:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="n">openjdk</span> <span class="n">version</span> <span class="s2">&quot;11.0.18&quot;</span> <span class="mi">2023</span><span class="o">-</span><span class="mi">01</span><span class="o">-</span><span class="mi">17</span>
<span class="n">OpenJDK</span> <span class="n">Runtime</span> <span class="n">Environment</span> <span class="p">(</span><span class="n">build</span> <span class="mf">11.0.18</span><span class="o">+</span><span class="mi">10</span><span class="o">-</span><span class="n">post</span><span class="o">-</span><span class="n">Ubuntu</span><span class="o">-</span><span class="mi">0</span><span class="n">ubuntu122</span><span class="mf">.04</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="n">OpenJDK</span> <span class="mi">64</span><span class="o">-</span><span class="n">Bit</span> <span class="n">Server</span> <span class="n">VM</span> <span class="p">(</span><span class="n">build</span> <span class="mf">11.0.18</span><span class="o">+</span><span class="mi">10</span><span class="o">-</span><span class="n">post</span><span class="o">-</span><span class="n">Ubuntu</span><span class="o">-</span><span class="mi">0</span><span class="n">ubuntu122</span><span class="mf">.04</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">mixed</span> <span class="n">mode</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">sharing</span><span class="p">)</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>The important part is in the first line <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">openjdk</span> <span class="pre">version</span> <span class="pre">&quot;11.xx&quot;</span></code>,
please make sure this is the case.</p>
</section>
<section id="source">
<h2>Source<a class="headerlink" href="#source" title="Link to this heading"></a></h2>
<p>To Install from source involves multiple steps.</p>
<p>Install Dependencies</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p><a class="reference external" href="https://maven.apache.org/">Maven</a></p></li>
<li><p><a class="reference external" href="https://www.python.org/downloads/">Python 3.6+</a> and</p></li>
<li><p><a class="reference external" href="https://openjdk.java.net/install/">OpenJDK 11.xxx Java</a></p></li>
</ul>
<p>Once installed you please verify your version numbers.
Additionally you have to install a few python packages.
We suggest to create a new virtual environment using virtual env.
All commands are run inside src/main/python/.
We assume that in the following scripts python==python3</p>
<blockquote>
<div><p>python -m venv python_venv</p>
</div></blockquote>
<p>Now, we activate the environment.</p>
<blockquote>
<div><p>source python_venv/bin/activate</p>
</div></blockquote>
<p>In case of using Linux. For Windows PowerShell use:</p>
<blockquote>
<div><p>Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force
python_venv/Scripts/Activate.ps1</p>
</div></blockquote>
<p>Note depending on your installation you might need to use pip3 instead of pip:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="n">pip</span> <span class="n">install</span> <span class="n">numpy</span> <span class="n">py4j</span> <span class="n">wheel</span> <span class="n">requests</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Then to build the system you do the following</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>Clone the Git Repository: <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/apache/systemds.git">https://github.com/apache/systemds.git</a></p></li>
<li><p>Open an terminal at the root of the repository.</p></li>
<li><p>Package the Java code using the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">mvn</span> <span class="pre">clean</span> <span class="pre">package</span> <span class="pre">-P</span> <span class="pre">distribution</span></code> command</p></li>
<li><p><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">cd</span> <span class="pre">src/main/python</span></code> to point at the root of the SystemDS Python library.</p></li>
<li><p>Build the Python API <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">python</span> <span class="pre">create_python_dist.py</span></code></p></li>
<li><p>Install with <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">pip</span> <span class="pre">install</span> <span class="pre">.</span></code></p></li>
</ul>
<p>After this you are ready to go.</p>
